Using Proxy

[Blair2004]

Hi, Thank you for your work. I have a question, is there a way to make the library works (makes requests) via a proxy. Because if we do a lot of translation request to Google, somehow the IP gets banned. So, using a proxy might prevent this.

Thanks.

How to use proxy? Will you please let us know?

[Blair2004]

I thought I have explained already... This consist of using a collection of random IP that can be used to prevent bans from too many request error.

I know that :) Just asking how we can integrate proxies to this script.

[Blair2004]

If the script is proceeding request to a remote service I guess the HTTP client should offer such option. I don't know if the scripts use Guzzle, but with that, you can define a proxy client.

I think this question must be replied by the script developer.

When you asked your question, I'm sorry if I believed you were talking to me. I also didn't notice you're highjacking the thread. 😅😅😅

I'm having the same problem, did you solve it?

I have a question, can I find out why you want to use a proxy? In case of connecting it and making many requests, Google will ban the proxy's IP, therefore, will it also stop working, or do I forget something?

Me, I fixed this issue a while ago. I'm using a home made script (adonisjs) that is based on the Chrome Extension of Google Translate. That script work far beyond my expectations as it can safely translate an HTML page with tags.

I'm using many different premium proxies to make sure, whatever translation I have to do during a day, I won't get banned. I thinking releasing it as a package for Laravel, I'm just meanwhile very busy.

Hello @Blair2004 , by premium proxies you mean paid proxies?

Hello @Blair2004 , by premium proxies you mean paid proxies?

Yes.

[mcolominas]

@Blair2004 I don't know how much money you will be paying to use the proxies, but since you pay, wouldn't it be better for you to use this https://github.com/statickidz/php-google-translate-free/issues/38#issuecomment-979448295? it also has a function to translate html

[Blair2004]

Hi, I'm paying around $4 monthly, I have created a multilingual (16 languages) blog and so far the tool I created translate very well. Most translation packages :

• doesn't translate well (accuracy)
• doesn't support HTML

That's the reason why I stopped using those.

[mcolominas]

So I do not understand it, what I have put in that comment is the translation paid google service, so it would have to be better than the free one and also, if it supports html https://cloud.google.com/translate/docs/reference/rest/v2/translate

If you say that you are already happy with what you use, use that, I'll be waiting for you to take out the package (if you take it out) to see how you have done it.

Is there anyone who adds proxies to this script and is happy with the way it works?
